I don't know if this is related, but I have a wi card running in access point mode and is disassociates under high traffic. If I start a transfer from the access point machine to a machine on the lan (for instance), the remote machine disassociates for a few seconds every 20 seconds or so. The card probes as:
wi0: <Intersil Prism2.5> mem 0xcecff000-0xcecfffff irq 11 at device 17.0 on pci0 wi0: 802.11 address: 00:05:5d:ee:e6:e7 wi0: using RF:PRISM2.5 MAC:ISL3874A(Mini-PCI) wi0: Intersil Firmware: Primary 1.00.05, Station 1.03.04
ifconfig says:
wi0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 inet 216.138.225.97 netmask 0xfffffff8 broadcast 216.138.225.103 inet6 fe80::205:5dff:feee:e6e7%wi0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x3 ether 00:05:5d:ee:e6:e7 media: IEEE 802.11 Wireless Ethernet autoselect <hostap> (DS/2Mbps <hostap>) status: associated ssid GILBERT 1:GILBERT stationname "FreeBSD WaveLAN/IEEE node" channel 11 authmode OPEN powersavemode OFF powersavesleep 100 wepmode OFF weptxkey 1
The hostap machine is 4.8-STABLE and the client is 5.1-RELEASE.
On the client side turn on debugging before doing whatever you're doing when this happens:
ifconfig wi0 debug
and/or
sysctl debug.ieee80211=1
(can't recall which gives what). The console messages should be useful in understanding which side initiates the reassociation.
